A source linked to the Public Ministry indicated that “Mudita” will not be prosecuted for the events that occurred in La Barranquita, although witnesses and the police themselves claim that he was present in the exchange of gunfire and that he managed to escape aboard a white, unplated Mazda jeep. Sánchez Morillo was on the list of the ten most wanted men in Santiago. According to police reports, he headed a criminal structure linked to hired killings, arms trafficking, kidnappings, compulsory debt collection for drug debts, and drug trafficking. It is expected that in the coming hours the Public Ministry will request coercive measures against "Mudita", considered by the authorities as one of the main ringleaders of organized crime in the North region.
